Intolerable False Statements by FDA’s Mitch Zeller

Dr. Gottlieb: A New Threat

Didn’t I just use the words “preconceived” above?

Not necessarily a ‘new threat”, the decision seems – decided. If you recall last summer, almost 70,000 comments were submitted about flavors? While we haven’t heard a word about those (to my knowledge), now the FDA “will issue within a month the guidance implementing the policy steps…” Um, what? Huh.

These comments seem to string the public along for what looks like the inevitable.

“…puts the entire opportunity at risk for adult smokers.”

“if these trends don’t reverse sharply and rapidly, I fear the consensus supporting these products for adults will disappear.”

#FDA will issue within a month the guidance implementing the policy steps we announced in November to limit youth access and appeal of these products. But if these trends don’t reverse sharply and rapidly, I fear the consensus supporting these products for adults will disappear.

THR4Life

I’m very excited about this.

Leighton Broadcasting announced THR4Life as one of the non-profit winners nominated for their (2nd annual) “2018 Gratitude Campaign”. Each winner will receive “21 radio advertisements per week for 13 consecutive weeks.”

My quotes

“Without question, no one markets cigarettes or e-cigarettes more to children than Tobacco Free Kids. No one.”

“The leading cause of funding for tobacco control is taxes derived from smoking.”

“There’s a big difference in a 93% government approved failure rate and pretending people need a “plan” and “help” to quit smoking.”

“#Nicotine “addiction” causes smoking rates to decline to the lowest rates… in history. Take your time.”

“What are the health implications of deceiving smokers by regulating e-cigarettes as “tobacco” products”?

“We’re not idiots. We’re already looking for all we can know about e-cigarettes. Do you know why? We’re tired of everyone being lied to. Because we’re the stakeholder in the equation. You’re not.”

“I’m for whatever works for the informed consumer. Patch, gum, Heat Not Burn, vaping, acupuncture, books, hypnosis, counseling, etc. Do I “like” them all? No. It’s not about or me or are what “I” like. What may work as choice for a consumer is first.”

“Morals are standards set by those who want their standards met by others.”

“To debate a comparison of e-cigarettes to combustible tobacco is gross negligence or voluntary incompetence.”

“….the anti-tobacco lobby is threatened by progress. They’re not used to it.”

“The assertion of nicotine “addiction” by “public health” is profitable and absurd.”

“Oftentimes an expert will make a claim and just assume we will nod our head in agreement because that’s what YOU think we’re supposed to do because you have a title. ——Put that way before you hurt yourself. Let us take a moment to get past that, shall we?”

“When tobacco use decreases, less smoking occurs.”

“The only reason government doesn’t sell #cigarettes directly is to keep you thinking they – don’t.”

“Ecigs are a replacement for tobacco products. They are not a replacement for lost tobacco taxes.”

“Treating the symptom, not the cause – is never an effective outcome.”

“The largest threat to Public Health is an informed consumer.”

“Despite the vast claims “experts” manufacture, we, as individuals, are the experts.”

“Convincing smokers that nicotine is addictive is a multi-billion dollar global lie.”

“I’ll tell you what your government and health organizations won’t about e-cigarettes.”

“Government & those in care & custody of “public health” are lying, to their advantage – of the effectiveness of smoking cessation products.”

Vaping In The News covers media stories on smoking, vaping, snus, heat not burn, e-cigarettes, exposing tobacco control, public health, government, regulations, policies and more worldwide. The post Vaping In The News – January 19th, 2019 appeared first on Vaping Links And More.

Let’s change the conversation about the myths surrounding nicotine and vaping. The government resists ignores the opportunity to correct myths surrounding nicotine, vaping, and snus. Most things shared in mainstream media is full of multi-layered bias. There are difficulties explaining admitting vaping products and nicotine (and snus) are a safer, less harmful alternative to smoking, […]

I invested a bit of thought for the title of this particular blog. It is my intent is to both entertain and educate. With clowns to the left of me, research to the right, on average, I trust I can reach my goal. Normally I spend about two or three hours on any blog. While […]
